حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ الْفَزَارِيِّ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ يُوسُفَ فَقُلْتُ أَصْلَحَ اللَّهُ الْأَمِيرَ أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكَ حَدِيثًا حَدَّثَنِيهِ سَمُرَةُ بْنُ جُنْدُبٍ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ بَلَى قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَسَائِلُ كَدٌّ يَكُدُّ بِهَا الرَّجُلُ وَجْهَهُ فَمَنْ شَاءَ أَبْقَى عَلَى وَجْهِهِ وَمَنْ شَاءَ تَرَكَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَسْأَلَ رَجُلٌ ذَا سُلْطَانٍ أَوْ يَسْأَلَ فِي أَمْرٍ لَا بُدَّ مِنْهُ.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
Hasan ibn Musa narrated to us, Shayban ibn Abd al-Rahman narrated to us, from Abd al-Malik, from Zayd ibn Uqba al-Fazari, who said: I entered upon al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf and said, "May Allah set right the governor - shall I not narrate to you a hadith that Samura ibn Jundab narrated to me from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He said, "Yes indeed." He said: I heard him say - the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Begging is toil by which a man wears down his own face; so whoever wishes may preserve his face, and whoever wishes may abandon that - except that a man may ask someone in authority, or ask concerning a matter he cannot avoid."
